Newport NEEDS this Tweeting Pothole device and we need it yesterday!

Panama City, Panama is a lot like Newport. We both are great party towns, we both have an ever growing bi-lingual population and we both have pretty terrible roads with HUGE potholes.

If only there was a way to fix them…

Well Panama City news channel Telemetro has decided to do something about it and has placed sensors inside a number of the potholes plaguing city roads. Whenever a car drives over one, the pothole sends a tweet to the city’s Department of Public Works. Basically they’re using squeaky wheel logic, which is brilliant!
